Hello everyone,
     So this week was quite the week my gosh!  Last monday on our pday we decided to drive up the mountain!  So we loaded up brought our cameras and we out the door!  Man it was beautiful it reminded me a lot of Island Park! Anyway so were probably 20 miles clear way up on top of the mountain when all of the sudden we hear ding ding!!!! We both look down on the low gas light comes on haha we never filled up!  In the meantime were sitting there blaming each other haha anyway I put it in nuetural and we honestly rolled all the way 20 miles down the mountain i have no clue how we made it to the gas station we were running on fumes!  So There is mondays story that was pretty fun! So on thursday we had whats called a mission tour!  Half the mission got together in chinle!  We had Elder Paul Piper chorum of the seventy come and speak to us!  It was really neat and so spiritual!  I actually got a chance at lunch to sit down and talk with him he began to ask me where i was from i told him Blackfoot, Idaho all of the sudden he smiled so big and said what part!  I said well i went to snake river and grew up in thomas!  He smiled even bigger haha turns out he grew up in thomas 3rd ward and graduated from snake river also SO COOL!!!! I was able to see all my MTC buddies there too it was good to see all of them and to hear they are doing good!  I got to see my MTC comp elder anderson haha it was good to see his goofy face and catch up with him!  We got to joke around and just have a good time it was fun!  So later in the week we were filling up gas and we went inside to get a receipt and i just locked the doors to the truck! We come back out and im pushing the remote button to unlock the truck and it wouldnt work! So i try to just unlock the door with the key!  That was working Its like broken or something so right now we cant lock our car at all so we might be going to get that fixed today in farmington maybe!  anyway so ya were at the gas pump parked with like three cars that are so ticked behind us and were locked out of our car!  I get this prompting you need to say a prayer!  I kind of just shrugged it off and kept trying to unlock the car!  Finally it just hit me YOU NEED  TO SAY A PRAYER!  I was like wow ok we will say a prayer haha so we did anyway we said amen and right after we tried to unlock it with the remote didnt work tried to unlock it with the key ya that didnt work either haha so right then i was like well that was dumb that prayer didnt work!  Less than five minutes later this like gangster navajo guy comes running up and i mean he is pumped up for some reason haha he is talking really fast and stuff he has a tire iron, and a screw driver in his hand haha he is like you boys need help haha i can get this open the whole time im laughing my butt off anyway he wedges the door open with the tire iron and sticks the screwdriver in there and asks us to twist off the antana to our car so we do! anyway he sticks the antana through the wedged door hits the unlock button and unlocks the car haha! He was such a cool guys just a straight up gangster and I know for a fact that wasnt his first time breaking into a car haha!  After i just sat back and thought wow heavenly father actually answered our prayer he might night have done it the way we were expecting but he still did it!  That just goes to show dont ever lose faith he is always listening!  We hauled wood all day saturday i acutally like to haul wood it lets me put my levis on and be up in the woods its gorgeous!  So we have been having nothing but problems with our septic tank!  It was all the way full and it wouldnt flush out at all! so all day yesterday we couldnt use the bathroom which didnt help because man the night before lets just say i didnt eat something very good and it made me so sick all i wanted to do was use the restroom so it was either life or death! Sink or swim haha I went outside and grabbed a stick and stuck it all the way down the toilet and all of the sudden it flushed out haha it was a miracle i was finally able to use the restroom man i dont know what i would have done! Anyway as you can see it has been quite the week!  Love you all!
Love Elder Rushton
